Tacrolimus- and Mycophenolate-Mediated Toxicity: Clinical Considerations and Options in Management of Post-Transplant Patients.

Tacrolimus and mycophenolate are important immunosuppressive agents used to prevent organ rejection in post-transplant patients. While highly effective, their use is associated with significant toxicity, requiring careful management. Tacrolimus, a calcineurin inhibitor, is linked to nephrotoxicity, neurotoxicity, metabolic disturbances such as diabetes mellitus and dyslipidemia, and cardiovascular complications such as hypertension and arrhythmias.

Objective: This study aimed to systematically evaluate the safety of cyclosporine (CsA) and tacrolimus (TAC) in pediatric nephrotic syndrome (NS) patients using real-world data from the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS).
Methods: We analyzed adverse event (AE) reports from the FAERS database between Q4 2003 and Q2 2024, focusing on AEs associated with CsA and TAC in NS patients aged 18 years and younger. We employed three signal detection methods-Proportional Reporting Ratio (PRR), Relative Reporting Ratio (RRR), and Reporting Odds Ratio (ROR)-to assess the risk of drug-related AEs.
Correlation of cyclosporine A blood concentration with kidney injury for pediatric patients after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation: a retrospective cohort study.

Department of Pharmacy, West China Second University Hospital, Sichuan University, Chengdu, 610041, China.
Background: The potential nephrotoxicity of cyclosporine A (CsA) has been a problem for treating graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). However, the relationship between CsA blood concentration and acute kidney injury (AKI) in pediatric patients after allo-HSCT remains unclear.
Methods: We performed a retrospective study including pediatric patients who received allo-HSCT in West China Second Hospital of Sichuan University from 2000 to 2022 and collected their clinical data.

Calcineurin Inhibitors (CNIs), including tacrolimus and cyclosporine A, are the most widely used immunosuppressive drugs in solid organ transplantation. Those drugs play a pivotal role in preventing graft rejection and reducing autoimmunity. However, recent studies indicate that CNIs can disrupt the composition of gut microbiota or result in "gut dysbiosis".

Oxidative stress, inflammation and renin-angiotensin system (RAS) activation play an important role in the nephrotoxicity which is caused by the long-term use of the immunosuppressive drug cyclosporine (CsA). This study investigates whether chenodeoxycholic acid (CDCA), an endogenous farnesoid X receptor (FXR) agonist with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects, modulates CsA nephrotoxicity. CsA (25 mg/kg/day; s.
